Hollywood mysteries and scandals

Probably my favorite rabbit hole, going back to the Hollywood Babylon books. Just hoping to find some that I haven't heard about and see if anyone has an interest in stuff like this. Just to get it going, a couple that I find really interesting are what happened to Albert Dekker Albert Dekker
and whether or not David Durston killed Diane Linkletter and/or Carol Wayne. It seems pretty likely that he killed both of them,imo.
Diane Linkletter's death

Katie Couric goes there with Rod Stewart
Stewart addresses the infamous story in an interview with Katie Couric, of all people.
This tale really had legs; I recall hearing it from a co-worker as late as the mid-1990s.

John Carpenter always seemed like the most likely suspect in the Bob Crane murder. But with what he was doing and how long he had been doing it, there's no telling who actually killed him.
This one's not really a mystery or scandal, but I just recently found out about Katey Sagal's dad being a director and getting decapitated in the early 80s when he went the wrong way exiting a helicopter at the Timberline Lodge(The Shining) when he was filming a tv miniseries.
Also didn't know that she had twin sisters that had a sitcom in the 80s.

Jean Spangler
Not a name actress, but her disappearance has been tied to Kirk Douglas, the mob, and even the Black Dahlia killer. Peculiar case.

That's another good one. The Black Dahlia and the Manson Family are two that I can't read enough about.
Another is Ted Healy and the rumors that he was killed in a fight with Wallace Beery, Cubby Broccoli(James Bond producer), and Pat DiCicco...who was also rumored to be connected to Thelma Todd's murder. But she was most likely killed by Roland West.

The little girl from Poltergeist, Heather O'Rourke.
Based off of how she died, I think it's highly likely she was raped to death by Spielberg and his, uh, contemporaries.

Add the Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle case to the mix.

Some speculate that Paul McCartney was somehow involved in Michael Jackson's passing. The motive would be the opportunity to acquire the rights to the Beatles' catalog. Jackson controlled the Fab-Four's music and this rubbed Sir Paul the wrong way.
A lot of money has been made off Beatles albums by Apple and McCartney since Jackson's death. Look deeper into this theory; it's quite interesting.

I'd like to know more about what happened to Anthony Fox...Johnny Depp's partner with the Viper Room. Supposedly, he found out that money had been embezzled and disappeared before he could do anything about it.
Johnny Depp ends up giving his shares in the club to his daughter and he still hasn't been seen since the day that he vanished.

Some of the mysteries and scandals from the silent era are really intriguing. I'd like to know if William Randolph Hearst really shot Thomas Ince, thinking that he was aiming at Charlie Chaplin.

anyone know a good podcast that dives into these things?
